Hi ValuePickr folks,
Finally taking the plunge to post here 
I started investing ~3 years ago, largely inspired by discussion on this forum. I come from a tech background but have been learning (and unlearning) about markets along the way.
My approach (still evolving):
I usually source ideas from platforms/experts like SOIC, Prashant Jain, ValuePickr, Shankar Nath, PPFAS, etc., and then filter based on:
-
Valuation (vs 3–5 year history)
-
Growth prospects (concall + management commentary)
-
Business quality (sector tailwinds, moat, pricing power)
Post that, I invest based on conviction and market Cap.
Where I’m improving:
I’ve realized I sometimes lean too much on expert views and struggle with timing—especially around sector plays. Stocks like AAVAS, HDFC, IDFC, Manyavar, and Angel haven’t worked out well so far.
Would really value inputs on:
-
Which holdings you’d consider exiting (and why)
-
How you assess temporary underperformance vs a broken thesis
-
